It also FTBFS on a couple of architectures so far (although the ia64
failure looks to be one of the recent tar issues, rather than an openjdk
issue).

>From the description of the CVE in upstream's changelog / NEWS files I
can spot some of the changes which were involved in fixing the security
issue, but the (undocumented afaics) change to bundling CACAO rather
than using the cacao-source package during build means that even a diff
filtered to remove build system noise, documentation, etc. comes to

 848 files changed, 334186 insertions(+), 160 deletions(-)

which there's clearly no way to sanely review; it's probably worth
comparing that to the old cacao-source to see how significant the diff
there is, but I haven't had time to do that yet.

Adam
